Hi, guys. After a big while and working more on my KH stories, which I'm still doing, but still, here is the new chapter for Legend of Uchiha Shinobi and Avatar! I know you've been looking forward to this one, so I hope you enjoy this and this was worth the wait. Happy Reading and don't forget to review!
Book 1: Air
Chapter 8: Intensities Meet
It's morning in Air Temple Island and Sasuke and Korra are having a sparring session with Sasuke charging at the Avatar and deliver swift punches and roundhouse kicks making Korra dodge every attack and unleashes Firebending and then Earthbending but Sauke dodges both fire and earth and delivers a downward strike sending Korra back but Korra uses Earthbending to skid and stop the sliding and throws three fireballs from both hands and then from her right foot but Sasuke quickly dodges every fireball and then delivers a punch making Korra grab Sasuke's fist but Sasuke delivers a roundhouse kick surprising Korra who quickly Firebends and they're both on the ground.
"You're really good with your fighting techniques, Sasuke." Korra said.
"And you're more aggressive with your bending, as usual." Sasuke said getting up.
"So, Mako and Bolin told me you're able to shoot fireballs from your mouth. I know you don't remember that happening, but did you…do it before?" Korra asked.
"I guess so. Nothing makes sense. The lightning, my eyes turning red, me turning pale and growing wings with black lightning, and shooting random fireballs. What could this all mean?" Sasuke asked.
"As we assumed before, all of those could be connected to your memory and your past. Whatever it could be, I'll help you figure this out." Korra said.
"Yeah. Come on, it's about time Mako, Bolin, and Asami arrive at the island." Sasuke said as the two start moving.
Sasuke, Korra, Jinora, Ikki, and Meelo arrive at the docks looking out for a boat and they later see a boat coming their way.
"There they are." Sasuke said and the boat arrives at the dock.
"You're finally here!" Ikki said excited.
"Glad you could make it." Sasuke said as the three get off the boat.
"That's nice, coming from you." Mako said.
"Shut up." Sasuke said.
"And, there's the bad attitude." Mako said smirking.
"Welcome to Air Temple Island. Your new home." Ikki said.
"Yes, welcome to my domain!" Meelo said.
"Well, aren't you a sweet little monk child." Bolin said smiling and Pabu jumps off of the Earthbender's shoulder and goes for Naga.
"What's that fuzzy creature?" Meelo asked looking at Pabu.
"That is a Fire Ferret. It's an…" Jinora was cut off.
"An arboreal mammal common to the bamboo forests of the central Earth Kingdom." Sasuke said making Jinora look at him shocked. "I read about them in your books." Sasuke said.
"That's…impressive. You do your homework, huh?" Jinora said.
"I only read about them because I was bored." Sasuke said.
"He's CUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUTE!" Ikki shouted excited while running past Jinora who covers her ears from her sister's shouting while Sasuke does the same and is more annoyed as Ikki tries to run for Pabu who hisses and runs away from the excited Airbender.
Just then Meelo Airbends himself on Naga.
"Yip, yip. Fly sky bison!" Meelo said pulling the polar bear-dog's ears making Sasuke roll his eyes.
"They're REALLY annoying." Sasuke said thinking about two people and it's the same blond haired boy and the same pink haired girl.
"Hey, thanks for sending the Air Acolytes to help us with the move." Mako said.
"Yes, they've been amazing. Such tireless workers." Asami said as they watch the Air Acolytes carrying too much bags off the boat.
"I thought you were bringing a few things." Korra said.
"I guess it would've been worse." Sasuke said.
"Well, anyway, everyone here wants you to feel welcome." Korra said.
"Come on." Sasuke said as he starts leading the group through the docks.
As they walk Meelo smiles at Asami.
"You're pretty. Can I have some of your hair?" Meelo asked making Mako laugh at this.
"Looks like I have some competition." Mako said in a joking manner.
"Get over yourself." Sasuke said coldly rolling his eyes.
"And now for the grand tour. The flying bison sleep in those caves down there. That's the temple Grandpa Aang built. And that's the greenhouse where we grow vegetables we eat." Ikki said showing the right where the caves are, the buildings, and to the left for the greenhouse.
"Any questions?" Sasuke asked.
"I have a couple of questions. Is this an all vegetarian island? Is that where you train Airbending? Do we have to wear Air Acolyte clothes? Do we each get our own sky bison? And final question, how many trees are on this island?" Bolin asked.
"Seriously?" Sasuke asked.
"Yes, yes, no, no, ten-thousand-nine-hundred and fifty-two." Ikki answered all the questions making everyone shocked.
"No comment." Sasuke said blankly.
"So, where are we gonna be staying?" Mako asked.
"You're a boy. Boys have to stay on the boy side." Meelo said.
"I'll be happy to you to the men's dormitory." Jinora said.
"Don't bother. I'll do it, since I live there." Sasuke said.
"I'm a boy." Bolin said.
"Really? I always thought you were a girl." Sasuke said bluntly.
"Okay, Mr. Grumpy. Just show us the men's dormitory." Mako said.
"Follow me." Sasuke said leading the brothers.
"Meelo, you go with the boys too." Korra said.
"We shall meet again soon, beautiful woman." Meelo said leaving.
"I'll be happy to take you to your room this way." Korra said as she starts leading Asami.
Korra, Asami, and Ikki are walking down the corridor of the woman side and everything is quiet.
"Asami, did you know Korra likes Mako?" Ikki asked making the Avatar have a shocked face while thunder roars and explosions occur in the background behind Korra.
"Oh, uh… No. I was completely unaware of that." Asami said.
"Well, let's move on!" Korra said grabbing Asami by her arm and they go down the halls while opening the doors to a different room allowing Asami to enter first and then follows her in and before Ikki could come in Korra quickly slams the doors in the Airbender's face.
"Hey!" Ikki yelled.
"Run along, Ikki!" Korra yelled through the doors making Ikki become angry as her eyes become comically white and begins growling and snarling and clawing like a cat but then pouts and walks off.
In the room and they look around it.
"So…this is your new room. I know it's a little rustic compared to what you're used to." Korra said.
"I think it's charming. The best part about it…nothing here reminds me of my father or Xiba. Thank you so much for your hospitality." Asami said.
"Of course." Korra said and just then there is a knock on the door. "Ikki, I swear, if you don't leave us alone, I'm gonna…" Korra cuts herself off as Tenzin enters the room making the Avatar shocked and embarrassed. "Uhhh, Tenzin. Come right in." Korra said trying to regain her composure.
"Good day, ladies. Asami, welcome to the island." Tenzin said.
"Thank you for having me." Asami said bowing and Tenzin bows back.
"Korra, Beifong's replacement, Saikhan is going to be inducted as the new chief of police later. I think we should both be there." Tenzin said.
"Okay. Asami, if you like, Sasuke can show you around the island more. I shouldn't be long." Korra said as she leaves with Tenzin.
At Republic City and outside the police headquarters a large crowd is standing in front of the new chief Saikhan who is standing near a podium and with him is Tarrlok.
"It was an honor serving under Chief Beifong for so many years and I wish her a speedy recovery. It is with great humility that I take her place as the new Chief of Police. Republic City is facing a threat like none the world has ever seen, but there is one man, who's been effective against Amon's revolution, Councilman Tarrlok. That is why for all matters involving the Equalists, I will report directly to him. The police department will lend any and all available resources to the councilman and his task force, until we quell this insurgency." Saikhan announced slamming his fist down on the podium.
"What is that weasel-snake Tarrlok up to now?" Korra asked looking at Tarrlok with disdain.
After the announcement the crowd starts to disperse and Tenzin walks toward Tarrlok who is shaking hands with the Fire Nation Councilman.
"Tarrlok, I don't know what you did to get Chief Saikhan in your pocket, but I highly doubt it was legal." Tenzin said.
"Oh, Tenzin. Always the conspiracy theorist. Did you ever consider Saikhan simply recognizes my talents and wants what best for this city?" Tarrlok asked making the Airbender grunt in disgust as Korra glares at Tarrlok with hate. "Well, Avatar Korra. Long time, no see. Now that your little pro-bending distractions are over, I look forward to your return to my task force." Tarrlok said.
"Ha! Forget it! There's NO way I'm rejoining your vanity project." Korra said crossing her arms.
"That is unfortunate to hear. I'm sure you'll come to your senses as you have in the past." Tarrlok said.
"Like I said, forget it, bub. You know, Tenzin's been right about you all along. You played me, you played Beifong, and now you're playing the new chief too. Well, I got news for you. You need me, but I DON'T need you! I'm the Avatar!" Korra said.
"You're not, in fact, the Avatar. You are merely a half-baked Avatar in training. That reminds me, how is your Airbending going? Made any significant progress?" Tarrlok asked and Korra looks down with no answer. "I didn't think so. Too busy babysitting that Uchiha brat to focus on your training?" Tarrlok asked making the Avatar look up in anger.
"Leave Sasuke out of this!" Korra said in a threatening tone.
"Maybe if you spent less time babysitting an unneeded brat with no memory and more time fulfilling your duties, then maybe you wouldn't be having problems with your Airbending." Tarrlok said making Korra more angry.
"You're WRONG about Sasuke! Just as you're WRONG about me! If you EVER insult Sasuke like that again, I'll make you wish you hadn't!" Korra threatened.
"If you will not be part of my task force, then you had best stay out of my way." Tarrlok said leaving and Tenzin places his hands on Korra's shoulder as Korra continues looking at Tarrlok with anger and disdain.
Later Korra and Tenzin are riding on Oogi through the city with Tenzin piloting the sky bison while Korra is sitting on the saddle.
"I don't understand what's wrong with me. I've memorized nearly all the practice forms, but I still can't produce a single measly puff of air! I'm a failure." Korra said.
"No, you're not. You just need to work through this Airbending block." Tenzin said.
"Amazing advice. I'll get right on that." Korra said sarcastically.
"I wasn't finished yet. You see, Aang not only has his bending teachers, but also his past lives to call upon for guidance. Have you ever made contact with your past lives?" Tenzin asked.
"No, of course I haven't. Didn't you get the memo from the White Lotus? I'm a spiritual failure too." Korra said.
"You may have made a connection without realizing it. Perhaps something you mistook for a dream?" Tenzin asked.
"Maybe. I had a few weird hallucinations, but I hardly remember them." Korra said.
"And did you see any previous Avatars in these visions?" Tenzin asked.
"I saw Aang. It seemed like he was in trouble, but you know what really surprised me was that, all of this started that night after Amon ambushed me and knocked me out. Even so, I could still hear Sasuke's voice and I felt him. Maybe he even helped trigger the visions in some way." Korra said.
"Then, Tarrlok is wrong. He said Sasuke's a distraction to you, but I believe he's helped you grow stronger. I'm not sure how to explain it, but it does seem that what you two share runs even deeper than just a brother-sister relationship." Tenzin said and Korra is shocked.
"That's been buzzing around my head for a long time now. What do you think it means anyway?" Korra asked.
"I'm not sure. I urge you to meditate these visions. I believe Aang's spirit must be trying to tell you something." Tenzin said stroking his beard.
A few hours later at Air Temple Island outside Sasuke and Asami are sparring with each other and are exchanging blows with Sasuke's punches and kicks and Asami's own attacks and Sasuke tries to punch at Asami who grabs the Uchiha's fist but Sasuke delivers a reverse roundhouse kick to get the heiress making Asami react quickly and grabs Sasuke's leg but Sasuke delivers another kick to send Asami back and Sasuke charges at Asami and delivers a strike but Asami counters and brings Sasuke to the ground but Sasuke quickly grabs Asami's legs and brings her down with him.
"Not bad. You really are a good fighter." Sasuke said.
"I can say the same about you. You remind me a lot of Xiba, but there's one thing, you don't serve the Equalists." Asami said.
"So, no red eyes or lightning or transforming into that weird monster thing or fireballs coming out of the mouth?" Bolin asked.
"No. None of that. I don't know when they happen. Do I have to repeat myself?" Sasuke asked.
"We're trying to figure this out too, you know. Maybe they click when something triggers in your memory or you somehow remember to do it, but just can't do it yet." Mako said.
"I don't know." Sasuke said.
"Someday, you'll get your memory back and we'll help you get through that." Asami said.
Just then Oogi returns to the island and Korra jumps off the saddle.
"Hey, Korra. How was your meeting with that new chief?" Sasuke asked but Korra walks away while ignoring him.
"What's wrong with her?" Bolin asked.
Later at night Korra is sitting at the edge of a cliff and is looking at the Aang statue and begins crying.
"Korra! You out here?" A voice called and it sounds like Mako.
"I think she's here." Another voice said and it's Sasuke.
"KOOOORRRA!" Bolin called.
Just then Pabu comes out from the bushes and climbs on the Avatar's shoulder for comfort and Sasuke, Mako, Bolin, and Asami come.
"There you are." Sasuke said.
"Are you okay?" Bolin asked.
"I'm fine." Korra answered.
"Come on, what's wrong? You can tell us." Mako said.
"How am I supposed to save the city when I can't even learn Airbending? I'm the WORST Avatar ever! I feel so…" Korra was cut off.
"Alone? Like the whole world is against you because you're not Aang? And when you try your hardest, it's not enough and you're scared of letting everybody down?" Sasuke asked and Korra cries harder.
"Sasuke, you're the only one who truly understands how I feel, no matter how bad of an Avatar I am!" Korra said.
"Bullcrap!" Sasuke said.
"Sasuke." Mako said.
"What you're saying about yourself is not acceptable." Sasuke said.
"He's right. Korra, you're amazing." Asami said.
"Yeah and remember, Aang hadn't mastered all the four elements when he was out battling the Fire Nation. He was just a little kid." Mako said.
"And he wasn't alone either." Sasuke said.
"Yeah. His friends helped him. Look, the arena might be shut down, but we're still a team. The new Team Avatar. Or better yet…" Bolin stops talking.
"Don't…" Sasuke warned.
"Team Uchiha Avatar!" Bolin cheered raining his fist.
"Damn you…" Sasuke said face palming. "But he's right. We stick by you because of what you are and we'd never turn our back on you." Sasuke said and just then a flash occurs showing a man with spiky white hair.
"In the ninja world, those who break the rules are scum, that's true, but anyone, who abandons their friends are worse than scum." The man said.
"Sasuke?" Korra asked.
"Sorry. Another flash occurred. Anyway, the point is we're a team now and we can't turn our backs now. We've come this far already since we first met and it's time we keep it going." Sasuke said.
"Yeah! We've got your back, Korra! We can save this city together!" Mako said and they all get into a circle and place their hands in the circle.
"Well, Korra?" Sasuke asked.
"Let's do it!" Korra said placing her hand on the others.
Just then Meelo comes flying down while passing gas on their hands.
"Yeah, let's do it! What are we doing?" Meelo asked.
"Thanks for ruining the moment, snot." Sasuke said annoyed while everyone else laughs.
Everyone gathers looking at the city.
"Get ready, Republic City. You're about to be patrolled by Team Uchiha Avatar!" Bolin said.
"Please stop that." Sasuke said.
Just then Asami comes in wearing her driving outfit and wearing an Equalist glove.
"Asami, you know how to accessorize with your outfits." Mako said.
"I figured one way to fight Equalists is to use an Equalist weapon." Asami said making electricity from the glove.
"Those Equalist scum will wish they never messed with us." Sasuke said.
"Alright, let's ride." Korra said as she, Mako, Bolin, and Asami get on Naga who goes down.
"Yeah, I don't think that's gonna work." Sasuke said.
"Any other ideas?" Korra asked.
"I think I have the answer." Asami said and later she drives out in a sleek Satomobile. "Think this'll do?" Asami asked and everybody gets in.
"I like the new Team Uchiha Avatar style." Mako said.
"Not you too." Sasuke said face palming.
"Let's go!" Korra said as Asami drives the Satomobile.
Team Uchiha Avatar begin patrolling the city and keeping their eyes open for any Equalists and they're listening to the radio with police reports.
"My dad had police scanners installed in all of his cars. I guess I know why." Asami said.
"Figures." Sasuke said and just then the radio begins to scratch.
"Calling all units, level 4 alert! Jail break a headquarters, officers down, electrocuted, chi-blockers and Equalists are still at large armed and dangerous! Last seen heading east!" The radio said.
"That's our cue." Sasuke said and they nod and they find Equalists on motorcycles and the truck pass by.
"There they are!" Bolin said.
"Let's get 'em!" Korra said and Asami starts driving. "Sasuke, you're fast out of all of us. Go to that truck and stop it." Korra said.
"Got it!" Sasuke said as he gets off the car and chases after the truck and gets on it as the truck prowls through the street.
Asami dodges every car but another massive truck blocks her way.
"Korra, Bolin, give me a ramp!" Asami said and Korra and Bolin Earthbend a ramp that sends the car flying into the air and then lands and Asami hits the gas pedal to make it go faster.
Sasuke who is still on the truck is dealing with Equalists on motorcycles and then jumps for one of them and delivers a strike at the Equalists making them crash into a lamp post and Sasuke gets on one of the motorcycles and rides on it while Bolin stands from his seat and uses Earthbending to throw earth disks and hit the wheels of another motorcycle making the other chi-blocker fall to the ground but the third Equalist unleashes smoke from his motorcycle keeping the others from seeing.
"Nice try!" Sasuke said as he drives past the smoke and chases after the third Equalist who is turning right and so Sasuke goes after him.
"Does he normally do these crazy stunts?" Asami asked.
"Once, when he jumped on the Triple Threats' car and destroyed their ride. That was how we officially met." Korra answered.
"Sounds like he started doing more crazy stuff, since you guys met." Mako said smiling.
"They didn't know we made the turn." Asami said.
"I have an idea. Wait for my signal, Asami." Sasuke said and the heiress nods while still driving. "Get ready…NOW!" Sasuke said and Asami changes gears and gains enough speed to ram the motorcycles flinging them into the air before landing while Sasuke delivers a roundhouse kick at one of the Equalists' jaw sending him flying out of his motorcycle but another Equalist tries to jab at Sasuke who dodges and Bolin tries to Earthbend but the same chi-blocker jabs at the Earthbender's arm stopping him.
Having enough of this Sasuke delivers another kick at the Equalist allowing Asami to electrocute him with her glove and then Sasuke finishes with delivering a spinning strike with the motorcycle and then drives for the truck gets on the top again and then throws the motorcycle at the truck's wheels while Asami drives her car closer and Mako electrocutes the driver with his lightning making the driver stunned and the truck comes to a halt and it hits a lamp post.
Korra, Mako, Bolin, and Asami get out of the car while Sasuke gets off the truck and Sasuke forcefully opens the truck's back doors and then grabs the escaped convicts out of the truck allowing Bolin to Earthbend rocks around them to stop them from escaping.
Later photographers begin taking pictures of the team and the captured Equalists and convicts and just then Sasuke sees a vehicle coming their way.
"Someone's late to the party." Sasuke said and Tarrlok arrives.
"Avatar Korra, what do you think you're doing?" Tarrlok asked in an angry tone.
"Oh, hey, Tarrlok. Nice of you to show up finally. Here, we captured the escaped convicts for you." Korra said.
"What you did was tear up the city and impede the real authorities in their pursuit of these criminals." Tarrlok said.
"That's funny. I didn't see your task force of the cops the whole time." Sasuke said in a smug manner.
"If it wasn't for Team Uchiha Avatar, they would have gotten away." Korra said inspecting her nails and she and Sasuke give each other a fist bump. "So, still think Sasuke's a distraction and is unneeded?" Korra asked mockingly.
"This is your final warning. Stay out of my way! And keep your brat in check!" Tarrlok said leaving.
"Loser." Sasuke said.
"I couldn't agree more." Korra said.
The next day at city hall all the Councils are having a meeting.
"Republic City stands as a beacon of freedom, but the Equalists are using that freedom to tear it down. The law I have proposed would make it illegal for anyone to be a member of the Equalists or even be associated with them. It also puts into effect a curfew, ensuring all non-benders are in their homes by nightfall." Tarrlok announced making Tenzin flabbergasted.
"This is going too far, Tarrlok! You can't punish all non-benders for the actions of a few!" Tenzin protested.
"That kind of cowardice will cause our city to fall into Amon's hands. We must pass this law. All in favor?" Tarrlok asked raising his hand first and the rest of the council agree while Tenzin sighs in anger and Tarrlok smirks and slams his gavel.
Unknowing to them Sasuke is spying on them and is shocked to hear what Tarrlok just said.
Later Sasuke returns to the group and tells them what happened at the council meeting.
"He WHAT?!" Korra asked shocked and angry.
"Tarrlok is passing a law that non-benders have to be on curfew." Sasuke said.
"Tarrlok's gone too far this time!" Korra said.
"As if this war between benders and non-benders wasn't horrible enough. Now they're treating all non-benders as if they have no rights." Asami said.
"The council is supposed to help the city, but now they're helping influence this crazy war." Mako said.
"What do we do?" Bolin asked.
"We have continue stopping the Equalists from having their way, then we'll worry about Tarrlok later." Sasuke said.
"Sounds good to me. Anything to stop this battle between different factions." Korra said.
Later at night Team Uchiha Avatar continue patrolling the city and they later stop at a bakery and are having dumplings but just then the radio starts going off.
"All available units please respond to the 56 hundred block of Dragon Flats Burol! Equalists have taken to the streets, consider them armed and dangerous and proceed with caution." The radio said.
"Finally, something to do." Sasuke said eating his dumpling.
They go for the car and Asami is in the driver's seat while Sasuke sits next to her while Bolin sits next to him and Mako goes for the car.
"After you." Mako said opening the back car door.
"What a gentlemen. Thanks." Korra said getting the car and sits at the back seat and Mako sits next to her making Asami watch this through her rearview mirror and has visible jealousy and then starts driving the car.
They arrive at a neighborhood that's cut off from electricity and all the houses are dark and nobody's home.
"Why is everything dark?" Sasuke asked.
"Maybe they forgot to pay their electric bills?" Bolin suggested.
"I don't know…" Korra said but then they see a large crowd of people who are non-benders and are protesting at Metalbending cops who are holding them back behind a blockade.
"Wait, these people aren't armed or dangerous." Asami said.
"It doesn't look that way." Korra said.
"Then, what's going on?" Sasuke asked.
"All non-benders return to your homes immediately!" A metal cop standing on top of a police truck ordered with a megaphone.
"Yeah, as soon as you turn our power back on!" One of the bystanders yelled and the other non-benders yell again.
"Why would they cut their power?" Sasuke asked.
"Disperse, or you WILL be arrested!" The metal cop with the megaphone called.
"You benders can't treat us this way!" A woman yelled and she's holding a baby.
"Mommy, look! It's the Avatar and that boy!" The little girl said and the non-benders turn to see the gang.
"Please help us. You're our Avatar too." The woman said.
"I'll see what I can do. I promise. I'm gonna put a stop to this." Korra said.
Sasuke looks around and sees someone.
"I think HE'S the source of the problem." Sasuke said pointing at the figure and they see Tarrlok talking to the police and so he goes over to the councilman who is not happy to see the Uchiha boy but Sasuke grabs him by his collar and drags him to Korra.
"Still can't control that brat, Avatar?" Tarrlok asked adjusting his clothes.
"Tarrlok, you need to turn the power back on and leave these people alone!" Korra demanded.
"Avatar Korra, you, that brat, and your friends have no business here." Tarrlok said.
"We're NOT going anywhere. You don't have the right to treat these innocent people like criminals." Korra said.
"This is an Equalist rally! There is nothing innocent about it!" Tarrlok said.
"These people are NOT Equalist, you idiot!" Sasuke yelled.
"They're just normal people, who just want their rights back." Asami said.
"They are the enemy! Round up all the Equalists!" Tarrlok commanded and the metal cops start Metalbending the blockades and removing the legs and begin to force people back while coiling the blockades and then the cops slam their feet creating large mounds of earth to rise from the ground making the people scream.
"STOP!" Korra shouted as she Earthbends the mounds down allowing the people to escape making Tarrlok angry but he sees Asami and uses his Waterbending to wrap her arm with water and drags her to the cops.
"Hey! Let me go!" Asami yelled.
"Asami!" Sasuke cried.
"You're under arrest!" Tarrlok said as the cops place handcuffs on her.
"What? You can't do that!" Mako yelled.
"Actually, I can. She's a non-bender out past her curfew and both her father and brother are known Equalist conspirators." Tarrlok said.
"Let her go!" Mako yelled.
"Arrest him and his brother!" Tarrlok ordered and the metal cops launch their cables at the brothers wrapping their torsos making them struggle to break free but to no avail and they are being pulled by the cops.
"That's it! I'VE HAD IT!" Sasuke shouted as his eyes turn red again as his irises split and then black marks appear over his body and then his body begins turning pale while his hair grows longer and dark grey and the giant wings from before begin growing from his back much to Korra's horror and Tarrlok's as well.
"What is this?!" Tarrlok asked with hint of fear.
"No… Not again!" Korra said.
"No…! Sasuke…!" Mako cried.
Sasuke lets out a huge roar while shooting fire out of his mouth and uses his wings to fly into the air and his left hand begins to create black lightning and uses the black lightning to strike at the metal officers with fury and then starts attacking the other cops with brutal punches and kicks and then fires multiple fireballs from his mouth at the other officers and then he Turns to Tarrlok who tries to Waterbend at the Uchiha but Sasuke delivers a flying charge while black lightning is around his left hand again and he strikes at Tarrlok with the black lightning electrocuting the councilman and then delivers a powerful kick to Tarrlok's stomach sending him to the police van and Sasuke roars with rage once more but then Sasuke breathes heavily slowly reverts back to his normal state while Korra rushes over.
"Sasuke!" Korra said comforting the Uchiha. "It's okay. I'm here." Korra said.
"Korra…I…" Sasuke was cut off.
"It's okay." Korra said.
"That brat is not just a distraction, but he's a THREAT to our community! He's a MONSTER! He's as dangerous as Amon!" Tarrlok yelled.
"No he's not! He's trying to help these people!" Korra yelled.
"I was right when I said he's unneeded. Take those children and put that monster away!" Tarrlok commanded and the metal cops escort the brothers and Asami into the police van while the remaining metal cops tie up Sasuke with metal cables and also tie up his hands and feet.
"Tarrlok!" Korra yelled levitating two rocks ready to strike.
"Unless you want to join your friends in prison, I suggest you put those down and go back to the Air Temple." Tarrlok said.
"Korra, listen to him! Don't do it." Mako said.
"It's…not…worth it." Sasuke said in a weak voice and Korra reluctantly drops the two rocks.
"We'll be alright!" Bolin said as he's pushed into the police van along with Mako and Asami.
"Take that brat to a different van. I want him locked up in a different cell." Tarrlok ordered and the metal cops forcefully drag Sasuke into another police van.
"Don't worry! I'll call Tenzin. He can get you out!" Korra called and both of the van doors close.
"So sad to see your little Team Uchiha Avatar broken up. You had a good run." Tarrlok said.
"This isn't OVER, Tarrlok!" Korra yelled.
"Oh, I believe it is. As for that monster brat…" Tarrlok stops talking.
"If you touch ONE hair on his head, you'll regret it!" Korra threatened.
"Why defend such a monster? You saw the damage he's caused. Then again, he was around you. Maybe that's why he got such destructive behavior." Tarrlok said as he and the cops drive off and Korra watches the van Sasuke is in driving off and she's heartbroken.
Later at police headquarters Tenzin finds Korra struggling to get an officer to talk to her.
"I came as fast as I could. Are your friends alright?" Tenzin asked.
"I don't know. These knuckleheads won't tell me anything!" Korra said.
"I'll take care of this." Tenzin said and he finds Saikhan by the counter. "Saikhan, a word if you please." Tenzin said.
"Councilman Tenzin. I'm pretty swamped at the moment. Can't this wait?" Saikhan asked.
"No it cannot. Four of the Avatar's friends were wrongly arrested tonight. I'd like you to release them immediately." Tenzin said.
"They're not going anywhere. They were interfering with police business, plus one of them assaulted my men and a member of the council." Saikhan said.
"They were only trying to help because your so-called police business was rounding up innocent people and claiming they were Equalists. They should be released too!" Korra said.
"All Equalist suspects are being detained indefinitely. They'll be free if and when the task force deems they are no longer a threat." Saikhan said.
"Those people are entitled to due process under the law." Tenzin said.
"You'll have to take it up with Councilman Tarrlok." Saikhan said.
"Oh, I plan to. First thing tomorrow morning." Tenzin said.
"What about Sasuke?! What does Tarrlok plan to do with him?" Korra asked.
"That information is classified." Saikhan said but Korra grabs him by the collar.
"Listen, bub! If ANYTHING happens to Sasuke, so help me, I will…" Korra was cut off.
"Korra! I know you're worried about Sasuke, but calm yourself." Tenzin said.
"Fine. But you're the WORST Chief of Police ever!" Korra said grabbing Saikhan by the chin.
"Calm down, Korra." Tenzin said leading the Avatar away and they start to leave but Tenzin stops and turns to Saikhan. "But you really ARE the worst! Ever!" Tenzin yelled and they leave the station.
Back at Air Temple Island in Korra's room Korra is on her bed crying in her pillow and Naga comforts her.
"I'm NOT waiting until morning. I'm going to have a talk with Tarrlok myself! I'll get my friends back! C'mon, Naga! Let's go save our friends!" Korra said getting off her bed.
Korra is riding on Naga through the city and it's snowing and Korra arrives at city hall and she looks at the building determined.
"Wait here, girl." Korra said and Naga hugs sadly. "Don't worry. I'll be okay." Korra said and she goes for the building.
In Tarrlok's office Tarrlok is working on some paperwork and his page is at his side but just then window opens allowing cold air and snow to enter the room blowing papers everywhere and they see Korra standing by the window with a look of anger.
"You and I need to talk." Korra said jumping into the room and confronts Tarrlok.
"Are any of the council members here?" Tarrlok asked his assistant.
"I believe everyone has gone home for tonight." The page answered.
"Then you should do the same." Tarrlok said.
"Are you sure, sir?" The page asked.
"Leave us." Tarrlok said in a stern tone making the page do what he says. "You obviously have something on your mind? What is it?" Tarrlok asked.
"Don't you see? You're doing exactly what Amon says is wrong with benders. You're using your power to oppress and intimidate people." Korra said.
"And you don't?" Tarrlok asked.
"Of course not!" Korra said.
"Isn't that what you came here to do? Intimidate me into releasing your friends? See, that's what I admire about you, Korra. Your willingness to go to extremes in order to get what you want. It is a quality we both share." Tarrlok said.
"You and I are NOTHING alike!" Korra yelled.
"Look, I'll make you a deal. You fall in line and do what I say, and I'll let your friends go." Tarrlok said.
"Is that why you arrested them? To get to me?" Korra asked.
"I need your answer." Tarrlok said.
"What about Sasuke? What do you plan to do with him?" Korra asked.
"Well, at first, I did plan on sending him to a science facility in order to learn more about his origins, as well as studying what powers he has." Tarrlok answered.
"You're going to perform some twisted experiments on him?!" Korra demanded disgusted.
"If you give me your word and do as you're told, I'll reconsider." Tarrlok said.
"No." Korra said.
"I thought you cared about that brat." Tarrlok said.
"More than YOU! I also know this is not what he wants. You're able to manipulate anyone, but not ME! I'll free Sasuke myself and Mako, Bolin, and Asami!" Korra yelled.
"You will regret your decision." Tarrlok said looking at his fancy waterfall.
"You're just as bad as Amon." Korra said making Tarrlok's eyes widen.
"I've tried working with you, Avatar, but you've made it impossible." Tarrlok said turning around and then bends a small stream of water from his waterfall at Korra who barely dodges as it cuts a small portion of her hair.
Korra Earthbends at Tarrlok forcing him back and causes him to hit his back and then fires a fire blast from her fists at Tarrlok who protects himself with a water dome around him and then thrusts his hands forward and firing several ice darts at Korra but she flips back to dodge them and tries to punch at the ice darts but one catches her on her side making her cry out in pain and then shields herself with her arms to protect herself and then thrusts her hands forward and Earthbends a wall behind Tarrlok into him making the man fly through the wall and into the council chamber.
Tarrlok lands on the ground and tries to right himself but he trips over the railing and starts to fall but he grabs the railing and his hair is now loose over his face and coming from the hole in the wall is Korra with her hair now a mess and torn clothes.
"Still think I'm a half-baked Avatar?!" Korra demanded as she Earthbends making Tarrlok fall to the ground below and the Avatar jumps down and punches the ground while landing causing a giant hole around her and breathes heavily and walks over to Tarrlok who is quaking in fear. "What're you gonna now? You're out of water, pal!" Korra yelled walking for Tarrlok who moves away in fear and the Avatar begins Firebending two flames in her hands and starts charging at Tarrlok but then she stops.
Tarrlok raises his hands up and Korra's arms begin moving under his control making Korra cry out in pain and then Korra is forced to her knees by Tarrlok's movements.
"You're in my way, Avatar! You need to be removed." Tarrlok said and Korra continues to struggle.
"You…You're a…Bloodbender?!" Korra asked shocked.
"Very observant." Tarrlok said.
"It's not a full moon. How are you doing this?" Korra asked.
"There are a lot of things you don't know about me." Tarrlok said as he Bloodbends to lift the Avatar in midair and throws her against a pillar and then lands hard on the ground.
Later Tarrlok takes Korra to a vehicle and she's tied up.
"Where are you taking me?!" Korra demanded.
"Somewhere no one will ever find you, but don't worry, I won't kill you. Say goodbye to Republic City, Avatar. You'll never see it again." Tarrlok said but Korra fires a blast of fire from her mouth screaming in fury but Tarrlok closes the door and starts driving the car and leave the city.
"You can't do this! LET ME OUT!" Korra shouted but Tarrlok keeps driving out of Republic City despite the Avatar's cries.
